Secure One-Time Download Links

Privacy and security are at the core of AirToShare. Today, we're introducing One-Time Download Links – a powerful feature for sharing sensitive files.

What Are One-Time Links?

A one-time download link is exactly what it sounds like: a special link that works only once. After the first download, the file is automatically and permanently deleted.

When to Use One-Time Links

  • Sensitive Documents: Contracts, IDs, financial documents
  • Confidential Information: Passwords, access codes, private data
  • Limited Distribution: When you want only one person to access a file
  • Time-Sensitive Files: Documents that shouldn't remain available

How to Create a One-Time Link

  1. Upload your file to AirToShare
  2. Click on the file to open preview
  3. Click the green Share button
  4. Toggle ON the "One-Time Download" option
  5. Copy the generated link
  6. Share it with your recipient

Security Benefits

  • File is deleted immediately after download
  • Link becomes invalid after first use
  • No traces left on the server
  • Peace of mind for sensitive sharing

With one-time links, you have complete control over your shared content. Share with confidence!
